When you say "stable" are you concerned about hills?? You didn't mention hills. Is there a big slope going to your pond? Or are you just concerned about not getting stuck by the pond?

the back side of the pond "dam side"has a steep hill.. the edges around the pond are steep.. one side of the pond is kinda steep.... the property is kinda hilly.. so yes.. i want something fairly stable

Since you're working 2 acres, and an acre of that is a pond...basically you've one acre to deal with.

I'd figure out what you want done and contract the job out...
